«Matrioska» is the contemporary novel by Italian writer Cristina Comencini, published by Feltrinelli in 2002 in hardcover (191 pages, in Italian).
A young aspiring writer agrees to write the biography of Antonia, an elderly sculptor. The recorded conversations form the Matrioska archive: Antonia, like a Russian doll, holds other women and stories. The biographer juggles this task with her life as a mother and her desire to write; the artist's loves and relationships come to the surface.
It belongs to Feltrinelli's I Narratori collection (number 608). The title appears on the cover as Matrioška.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in stories about art, memory, and women's lives.
Cristina Comencini is an Italian film director, screenwriter and novelist.
